Ashigaru

[Guy]

Here are a couple of shots of the flesh for the 90mm Ashiguru Warrior I have just started

Left leg and foot are pegged to a work base.

Guy, excellent flesh tones, I like it a lot

[Guy]

Thanks Leigh,
Some of the members were talking about how the flesh looks so different when no other colors are next to it and that is so true. The flesh will take on a different look as I paint up to the flesh. I am so used to how this looks that I don't pay it much attention and can envision what the total piece will look like. Thanks for the kind words.

Looking good, Guy. I'm anxious to see how this one turns out-- he's on my wish list .

Thanks Mike, I have had this figure for quite a while and finally got up the nerve to paint it.

Here you can see the difference in the flesh tone with colors base coated next to the flesh paint.

 

[Guy]

Here are the base colors and you can see that they effect the flesh and the difference between previous postings.

 

[Guy]

Here is the upper torso base coated with Napoleonic Violet. Looks like crap now......but just wait till later. I ignore the armor area until the torso is completely done....then do the armor.

Hola Guy!

Looking awesome! Are you going to paint some symbols or some kind of pattern on his shirt?

 

[Guy]

Thanks Anders,
I will have a design over all the Voilet color. First I will blend and shade as though there would just be a plain color....add design last
then do the adjoining colors next.

Another top quality figure, how do you split your time between this one and the Crow. A day on each or as it takes you fancy?

Thanks again John,
I pretty much bounce back and forth with about a dozen different figures in progress.......bad habit........but the way I do it neverless. I have several bust, several 54mm, and several 90mm in the works and work on the one I feel like.

Guy, a dozen! and they are all as good as these two as well I bet, not fair. I struggle to have two underway at any one time.
